I like how the democrats(Terry McAuliffe) would like to take credit for saying that it was Clintons armed forces that won the war, but they won't take responsibility for the economy that was handed off to bush. I don't blame clinton for how the economy took a down turn nor would I blame them for the Enron type problems that started during his administration. But for them to try and place blame on Bush for the economy and take credit for the ability of the armed forces is why they probably won't be getting my vote.

Given Bush's problems with dishonesty, arrogance, favoritism to special interests, etc., I'd like to set the bar a little higher on moral conviction. There's a difference between moral and self-righteous.Originally posted by: cpumaster
Democrat doesn't have any interesting candidates anyway, yet Bush is actually not much better than any of them...too bad we can't get an intelligent president like Clinton with moral conviction of Bush with centrist point of view (like the majority of americans)

This is true. He could fall into his father's trap. People will naturally blame him for the economy if it keeps getting worse. 2004 debates will be very interesting and probably very heated.

The 2000 election was somewhat similar in nature except the winner of the race was helped across the line by the Court system and a variety of other occurances. This helping should not have occured and therefore, the winner should have been the eliminated from contention...
The court system by helping, installed a person who otherwise would have not made it.
florida and USSC

You will see that the law said gore could choose what to recount he did and could have done many things but, was challenged on the bogus 14 ammendment clause and it should never have gone to the (I think) 11th circuit and certainly not the USSC.

Your analogy might work if our system did punish those who "cheat" by total disqualification, but that isn't the case in the US. I seem to recall a few scandals involving dead people voting in recent history, were the campaigns that were responsible for stuffing the box with dead people's votes automatically disqualified?
But still even if we did disqualify people for "cheating", where is your proof that:
A. Bush cheated?
B. Gore would have won if Bush hadn't cheated?
Nice links - but front pages don't prove much. The onus is on you since you are making the accusations.
